A great partnership between AMIC and Choice Energy, saving thousands of dollars in energy costs annually for our members. Contact your AMIC State Manager for more information on how your business can benefit.
Over October and November, Choice Energy held a campaign for members of our new partner, the Australian Meat Industry Council, to win $1,000 to go towards paying off their energy bills. The campaign saw huge success, with several dozen members entering the competition, resulting in us helping reduce AMIC members’ energy bills by over $75,000 over the next 12 months! Congratulations to Daniel Lewis and the team Continental Kosher Butchers Pty Ltd on being drawn the winner late last week and thank you to Andrew J Meli for organising the catch up in Malvern yesterday. Looking forward to more continued success in the industry as our relationship continues to grow!

Thank you Mark Davie for all the exceptional work you have done for the industry. Your contributions have built a strong, lasting legacy.
The Australian Beef Sustainability Framework (ABSF) wishes to express its gratitude to Mark Davie for his exceptional commitment and leadership as Chair of the Steering Group, a role he concludes today. Mark joined the Steering Group in September 2020 and assumed the position of Chair in November 2021. Throughout his tenure, he has been instrumental in refining ABSF indicators to better serve stakeholders, increasing industry engagement on sustainability priorities, and enhancing the visibility of our sustainability credentials. Mark also played a pivotal role in developing the five beef sustainability goals. His representation of the industry at both national and international events has been crucial in strengthening the ABSF’s credibility. Notably, he made significant contributions as a panellist on the nature-positive panel at the 2022 Global Roundtable for Sustainable Beef (GRSB) conference in Colorado. Under Mark’s leadership, the ABSF has solidified its reputation as a world-leading sustainability initiative for the beef industry. The ABSF also extends its sincere thanks to long-standing Steering Group members Jenny O'Sullivan, Dr Michael Maxwell, and Carl Duncan, who are also stepping down today. Their invaluable expertise and dedication over the past five years have been fundamental to the ABSF’s success and have positioned the industry to seize future sustainability opportunities.
